Review request for kdelibs and Plasma.


Summary
-------

This patch makes KStatusNotifierItem expose its menu on DBus, making it possible for the StatusNotifierItem visualization to control the rendering of the menu. It adds a dependency on dbusmenu-qt, which can be found here:

For now icon names are not exposed because it needs QIcon::name(). This method should be in Qt 4.7, but was not included in the beta.

Testing
-------

After applying the patch you should be able to list the menu of a KSNI-enabled application from DBus. This can be checked with this command:

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.kde.StatusNotifierItem-$PID-$N /MenuBar org.ayatana.dbusmenu.GetChildren int32:0 array:string:
